Perfection...Please! - Poem by octavia wilson

im sick of pretending its all perfect, tired of living a lie; sick of loving you, tired of the tears i cry. im sick of giving you my lovetired of getting nothing in return; sick of all these other girl, tired of being unable to learn. im sick of running back to you tired of returning hurt; sick of your stupid act, tired of being treated like dirtsick of living this life, tired of being blue, sick of thoughts about giving up, tired of the stupid things i do to try to get close to youwhy do you inflick so much pain, whydo you push me in the pouring rain. whydo you like to hurt me so mych juist let me be, why is it that your doing this to me? im sick of it allso sick im gonna do it; so tired of being stuck in this phase, so sick, im ready to quit.
